What is your use case? Or is it only to cloak from your isp?

I have a Mac mini m1 and run several containers to manage media, arrs and vpn. I also have a Debian vm for homeassitant. I had used UTM prior but now moved the vm to VMware fusion.

Main issue I run into is not enough ram as the base model only has 8gb. And I do not have redundancy optimised when I reboot. I have it locked with a password so it doesn’t auto run the containers or the vm.

I double the mac for light browsing too. I considered getting a dedicated Linux mini pc for the services next to a desktop Mac. But my usage is too sparse at both ends of the spectrum.

Leapfrogging Bitwarden I see.

Do we like this over bridge? That hasn’t been halve bad on Mac.

I simply created the usb from the aarch64 image provided. Wouldn’t it configure it right from that?

Thank you for pointing out the obvious mistake.

I tried the hass route instead, but can’t get it to work due to dependency issues once I try to install the supervisor package. Even though the aarch64 OS agent seems to install without issue. I’m tired of getting it to work.

I have managed to install HASS on a Mac mini m1 through a Debian vm in UTM, that is serving its introduction purposes right now. Likely I will end up getting a home assistant Green at some point, but I don’t find the price that appealing for what it is. Or I need to shell out even more for a n100 mini pc.

Thanks for sharing. I had the feeling it hadn’t. Unlike the bridge setup depending on your third party email client

Does it have background notifications?

Me too. I realised I don’t need anything more. It’s easy, supposedly private and quite elegant.
